New Rake tasks: db:structure:load and db:test:load_structure

Reported by Matthias Marschall | May 25th, 2009 @ 08:54 AM | in 3.x

In the current rake tasks, dealing with schema.rb and with development_structure.sql works slightly different, e.g. the db:test:prepare task uses an existing schema.rb (db:test:load) whereas, when we're using config.active_record.schema_format = :sql, it dumps and then loads the development database using db:test:clone_structure).
This seems to be a little confusing and is a problem, when you want to run a CI server only having test evnironment (and no development). We want to check in development_structure.sql and would like rake to use it (like it does with schema.rb).

I applied a patch adding two rake tasks to databases.rake:
* db:test:load_structure * db:structure:load and changed db:test:prepare to use the new load_structure task now

I like the idea, but I'd rather the task names stayed the same, so we could continue to use db:reset and such to load structure files.

Please consider a +1 to my patch here, which toggles the actions based on the schema format:

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not been commented on for at least three months.

The resources of the Rails core team are limited, and so we are asking for your help. If you can still reproduce this error on the 3-0-stable branch or on master, please reply with all of the information you have about it and add "[state:open]" to your comment. This will reopen the ticket for review. Likewise, if you feel that this is a very important feature for Rails to include, please reply with your explanation so we can consider it.

Thank you for all your contributions, and we hope you will understand this step to focus our efforts where they are most helpful.
